Hi,

I've got two Dell poweredge 1600SC that I want to use for Oracle RAC testomg. (Both running Redhat ES 3.0).
I can get my hand on a SCSI Disk Array - U320 with 4 10K disks. My question, in order to run RAC, can i buy just about any U320 SCSI adaptor for each of the boxes and then connect both of them to the disk array?
Do I need to see if the array supports any kind of technology that will enable both server to "work" with at the same time? The same question for the SCSI adaptors cards, do they need to support some kind of protocol in order to work with RAC?

Thanks,
